Hi Cory, Thanks for taking time to comment. I was in a big hurry when I scanned that one, it is a truly awful scan! The slide is beautiful. A little more DOF would have been nice too, but the viewfinder gets kind of dark because the 1000mm is not auto aperture. Seeing the water in the background would have been cool, but it just didn`t work out from my perspective, as once you set up that beastie, it stays put. Thanks again Cory!
